Abstract :
This paper deals with the interworking of a satellite system for mobile multimedia applications with the terrestrial environment. The concept of an “overlying network” is introduced with the aim of giving a common approach for the interworking of the considered satellite system with the various terrestrial networks (B-ISDN, N-ISDN, TCP/IP). The paper particularizes the introduced concept to the case in which the considered satellite system is interfaced with the broadband ISDN (B-ISDN)
